'Rigs Of Dad' Instagram Page Gives Metal Pops A Chance To Shine + Show Off Their Gear

We at VH1 cover heavy metal legends and superstars, but what about the graying family man who consigns his rockage to the basement or garage? Will they remain banished to their mancaves forever?! Well now a hilarious/awesome Instagram account is giving these humble headbangers their due. The "Rigs Of Dad" Instagram page allows gentlemen "of a certain age" to show off their gear for the world.

There's sweet gear.

Donald "Donny" Brogan gave himself a recently-divorced gift. Nope, not the car! That's how he met the ex-wife! Digging the whammy'd out Squier strat and half stack. That jacket is pretty choice too! Congrats Donny!! #rigsofdad #tonezone #gearporn #newgearday #divorcedgearbuy

My buddy Hal Rizigliada played one heck of a set with his band Ronald Raygunz at the Vinnie Tomeski Pizza Parlor the other night. He plays an Epiphone Gibby into a monstrous Crate Stack. If you like American songs with purpose, check these dudes out on MySpace. #rigsofdad #tonezone #🇺🇸

Buddy Cantarello showing off his new axe. Narrow body helps with some serious whammy bar action. Makes playing more recent Styx songs feel like playing more recent Foreigner songs. #rigsofdad #tonezone #gearporn

Killer home setups.

Break glass in case of rock emergency!!!! If this were my basement it would happen all the time, cuz those amps look like they could heat things up! But it's not mine, it's Clancy Nibbinstook mancave over in Jessup. #rigsofdad #tonezone #gearporn #jampad

My buddy Carris Hunningham invited me over to crack open a sixer of Blue Moons and strum some sixers. Snapped this one in the process. #rigsofdad #tonezone

Garrett Caplinado just hammered out a dream's worth of work in a single day: refelting his pool table, stocking his fridge with some Pete's Wicked Ale, and restringing his army of six-string soldiers. I don't make it up to Pamadinto Squall that often, but when I do, I'm gonna be sure to hit up Garrett!! #rigsofdad #tonezone #jampad

Reggie Victinataro had me over last night to his crib to throw back a few Killian's Irish Reds and sit in with his band "Shoes for Henry". He played some e-drums and played his Epiphone Gibson. Fun times. #rigsofdad #jampad #tonezone #beerswiththaband

A few other household modifications.

now THAT is what I am missing in life. Fill that bad boy up with some @leinenkugels and plug in my Epiphone Gibson, you're in for a treat. "Coolest" amp on the market, in my opinion. #rigsofdad #coolamp #fridgeamp #gearporn #beerporn

And no dad metalhead is complete without this tie.

Miles Keaning was the talk of the office today, wonder if it's because he's sporting the coolest tie I have ever seen!!! #stockingstufferidea #rigsofdad #wishlist #gearporn #tieporn
